Now, it can display some information on the Home page when CPUs usage or memory usage is too high.

I putted those function in util.c

I encountered a strange issue:
Even when multiple CPUs were under high load, the output looked like:
CPU11
CPU11
CPU11
Eventually, I found the problem:
→ I used the wrong index when writing into the error array, causing repeated overwrites.

I also test this project using stress and stress-ng.

Today I implemented a simple TUI (text-based user interface) using termios.

During development, I needed to avoid blocking the main loop, so I couldn’t directly use functions like getchar() for input. Instead, I used read() along with fcntl to enable non-blocking input handling.

I also refactored the CPU usage calculation function. Previously, I had sleep(1) inside the function, which caused the UI to feel unresponsive. I moved the sleep call into the main loop to improve responsiveness and overall control of the update cycle.

Now the program supports switching between different views using keys 1, 2, 3, and 4.

In the future, I plan to integrate ncurses to build a more advanced and user-friendly interface.

Today, I implemented memory and process monitoring in my sys_alert tool.

I parsed system information from /proc and stored important data in structs for better organization and future extensibility. I then displayed key metrics to observe system behavior.

During this process, I learned what these system metrics actually mean and identified which data is critical for detecting abnormal conditions or potential system errors.

This work improves the foundation of the monitoring system and prepares for future alerting features.

Worked on sys_alert today.

• Implemented CPU usage monitoring
• Parsed /proc/stat
• Fixed calculation bugs

Next: improve UI and add process viewer
